This weekend we came home to Illinois to celebrate the life of a truly amazing woman, Judy, who we were blessed to have known. Her celebration service was a true testament to the woman she was and the life she lived here on earth, preparing her for her true home-in heaven. The tributes given on her behalf by a sister, cousin, and friend were simply beautiful and definitely will be treasures that I will carry with me throughout my life.

I wanted to share something with you all that she wrote during her journey with cancer...

"Life has become-
More whisper than shout
More smiles than giggles
More strolls than hikes
More flats than stilettos
More biography than mystery
More refrain than crescendo
Shorter yet eternal
More blessed."
-Judith Ann Mason

Praise God for her life and please keep her family in your prayers.

Thank you all for taking the time to come to Aunt Judy's memorial services. My parents commented on how wonderful that you all were there and also all of Angie's family. We married into the best families. Thank you also for all of your prayers. We treasure them!
Love you guys,
Kim
